Film – Big Night!

Mar 1 at 6:30 PM - 8:30 PM

Dharna, a law-abiding gay beautician in one of the slums of Manila, finds their life in danger on learning that his name has been included in the village drug watchlist. In Duterte’s war on drugs, even having one’s name on the watchlist means the risk of getting killed extrajudicially. Dharna goes on a darkly comic day-long odyssey to try to get his name off the watchlist before it’s submitted to the police the following day.

2021 | 1h 45m | Written and Directed by Jun Robles Lana
